Here are the best phones you can get for Sprint/T-Mobile

As of August 2, 2020, the Sprint brand is no more. It's been laid to rest as part of the carrier's merger with T-Mobile, signaling the end of an era. If you're a current Sprint customer and looking to upgrade your phone, you'll need to do it through T-Mobile. Lucky for you, there are a ton of great options to choose from no matter what your budget is. Here are some of the best Sprint phones to consider under T-Mobile.

Perfect fit

Samsung Galaxy S20

Staff Pick

Without a doubt, Samsung's Galaxy S20 is the best phone you can buy on Sprint/T-Mobile right now. Samsung's Galaxy S series impresses every year, and this update for 2020 is especially exciting. The S20 delivers Samsung's first 120Hz AMOLED display, triple rear cameras, and a large 4,000 mAh battery. The 6.2-inch screen size keeps the phone easy to manage in one hand, not to mention the gorgeous Cloud Pink color you can get. And, yes, it supports T-Mobile's 5G network.

Going all out

Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra

While the Galaxy S20 is the best phone for most people, it isn't the most technically-impressive phone in Samsung's lineup. Instead, that title belongs to the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra. The Note 20 Ultra is extremely expensive and overwhelmingly large, but it's also a force to be reckoned with. It has a 120Hz AMOLED display, excellent cameras, frosted glass back, and the almighty S Pen, which adds a ton of extra functionality.

Sleeper hit

Samsung Galaxy S20 FE

Speaking of the Note and Galaxy S handsets, we have to mention the Galaxy S20 FE. This is a phone that pretty much came out of nowhere, but we sure are happy that it's here. The S20 FE gives you the same core experience found on the regular S20 but for considerably less money. You get the same 120Hz AMOLED display, Snapdragon 865 processor, and great battery life. If you want a good deal, check this one out.

Flagship for less

OnePlus 8T+5G

The S20 and Note 20 Ultra are great phones, but they also cost quite a lot of money. If you'd like to get the flagship experience without breaking the bank, the OnePlus 8T is a great choice. Despite its lower price, you still get a ton of features you'll love — including a 90Hz AMOLED display, the ultra-fast Snapdragon 865 processor, really good cameras, and a large 4,500 mAh battery.

Affordable 5G

Google Pixel 4a 5G

For anyone that's buying a phone through T-Mobile, the Pixel 4a 5G is a fantastic option you should have on your radar. It's the middle child of all the Pixels released in 2020, and for a lot of people, it's the easiest one to recommend. You get a 6.2-inch OLED display, fast performance with the Snapdragon 765G processor, and truly excellent cameras. There's also support for 5G, which adds a nice touch of future-proofing at a very reasonable price.

$21/month at T-Mobile

As cheap as it gets

Moto E

On the subject of affordable phones, another one we'd like to highlight is the Moto E. This is one of the cheapest phones Sprint/T-Mobile sells, and given the ultra-low price, it delivers a good user experience. It has great build quality, a headphone jack, good battery life, and a fingerprint sensor for securing all of your sensitive apps. It doesn't have the best processor or display, but if you need to spend as little as possible, it's worth a look.

$6/month at T-Mobile

Budget Galaxy

Samsung Galaxy A71

Samsung makes some of the best Androids on the market, but oftentimes, the Samsung phones that get talked about the most are the priciest ones. Samsung has a few cheaper options in its lineup, one of which is the Galaxy A71. The A71 offers a high-end experience, though at a much lower price than something like the S20. It has a gorgeous AMOLED display, a huge battery, four rear cameras, and more.

$25/month at T-Mobile

Flippity flip

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G

Foldable phones are a reality, and if you're a Sprint/T-Mobile customer, you can buy one of the best that's currently available — the Galaxy Z Flip 5G. The Z Flip looks like a regular phone when it's open, but it can be closed at any time and become half the size for easy portability. It's also paired with the futuristic design are top-end specs, including an AMOLED screen, dual rear cameras, and a Snapdragon 865+ processor.

$58/month at T-Mobile

Fold it up

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2

While we're on the subject of folding phones, another one you should consider is the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2. Instead of the flip-phone design found on the Z Flip, the Z Fold is effectively a smartphone and tablet in one single device. You get that radical design combined with top-tier specs across the board, making the Galaxy Z Fold 2 a thoroughly enjoyable gadget in virtually every way.

Which one will you choose?

It's sad to see that Sprint is no more, but thankfully, T-Mobile's collection of Android phones is every bit as impressive as Sprint's ever was. Out of everything the carrier has to offer, we think the Galaxy S20 is the phone most people should get. Every aspect of the S20 is darn-near perfect, giving you one of the best Android offerings money can buy. It is expensive, but we think the S20 is well, well worth it.

For people that want a flagship phone but can't justify the cost of the Galaxy S20, the OnePlus 8T is a fantastic alternative. It's built well, is as fast as can be, has great cameras, and comes in at a considerably lower price.

Speaking of price, the Moto E brings up the rear as the phone to get if money is especially tight. You have to put up with a fair share of compromises when buying a device this cheap, but for running your apps, making calls, and sending texts, the Moto E does it all while keeping most of your money in your pocket.

The hidden cost of food delivery

Noah Lichtenstein Contributor Share on Twitter Noah Lichtenstein is the founder and managing partner of Crossover , a diversified private technology fund backed by institutional investors, technology execs and professional athletes and entertainers. More posts by this contributor What Studying Students Teaches Us About Great Apps I’ll admit it: When it comes to food, I’m lazy. There are dozens of great dining options within a few blocks of my home, yet I still end up ordering food through delivery apps four or five times per week. With the growing coronavirus pandemic closing restaurants and consumers self-isolating, it is likely we will see a spike in food delivery much like the 20% jump China reported during the peak of its crisis. With the food delivery sector rocketing toward a projected $365 billion by the end of the decade, I’m clearly not the only one turning to delivery apps even before the pandemic hit. Thanks to technology (and VC funding) we can get a ri

Slack’s new integration deal with AWS could also be about tweaking Microsoft

Slack and Amazon announced a big integration late yesterday afternoon. As part of the deal, Slack will use Amazon Chime for its call feature, while reiterating its commitment to use AWS as its preferred cloud provider to run its infrastructure. At the same time, AWS has agreed to use Slack for internal communications. Make no mistake, this is a big deal as the SaaS communications tool increases its ties with AWS, but this agreement could also be about slighting Microsoft and its rival Teams product by making a deal with a cloud rival. In the past Slack CEO Stewart Butterfield has had choice words for Microsoft saying the Redmond technology giant sees his company as an “existential threat.” Whether that’s true or not — Teams is but one piece of a huge technology company — it’s impossible not to look at the deal in this context. Aligning more deeply with AWS sends a message to Microsoft, whose Azure infrastructure services compete with AWS. Butterfield didn’t say that of course
